Nette Onclaud Poet Couplet

Minus Identity

Shines the season brimming with grandeur, rich
In winter... frills of ice and snow bewitch 
My pine trees capped with tinsels evergreen :
Comes spring-- dizzy where buds' hues turn to sheen
While air minty weaves on glens to unfurl
My trail scenting walks on plush lanes...hours whirl.

Then summer calls, hundred moths blaze cloud's  fire,
Red-hot nights flaming, sizzling moon's desire 
To entice a June love I bring to shore,
Till fall chants... boughs spilling lace on damp floor 
Relishing life's harvest...true hearts content
When I trace cycles blooming but not spent;

For this spirit thrives on stars, earth, 
' neath clay...
I am life that begins and ends each day
Between seasons,  time pauses for a while,
As hands nourish solstices that beguile.
For I, God's nature child, could grant relief
Bringing hope for man's journey...root to leaf
